Cookie Policy

Last updated: 3 July 2026

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Local storage is a similar browser mechanism that can persist data between sessions. Together, these technologies help websites function, remember preferences, and—when you agree—understand how visitors use pages.

2. Who operates this Site

This Cookie Policy applies to cogninarrative.pro, operated by CogniNarrative Inc., 40 King Street West, Suite 3300, Toronto, ON M5H 3Y2, Canada. Questions: [email protected].

3. How we use cookies

3.1 Strictly necessary

These cookies are required for basic operation and security. They cannot be disabled through our banner because the Site would not function correctly without them. Examples include session integrity checks and load balancing identifiers from our Canadian hosting provider. They do not track you across other websites for advertising.

3.2 Analytics (optional)

If you click “Accept all” or enable analytics in “Customise,” we may place analytics cookies or use local storage to collect aggregated visit statistics—pages viewed, approximate referral source, device type. We use this information to improve content and diagnose performance issues. Analytics cookies are not set if you click “Reject all.”

3.3 Consent storage

Your cookie choice is stored in browser local storage under the key associated with our consent script. The record includes your selection and a timestamp. It expires after six months, after which the banner may appear again so you can confirm or change preferences.

4. Cookie banner controls

On your first visit (or after consent expires), a banner offers three options:

• Accept all — Enables necessary and analytics cookies/storage.
• Reject all — Enables only necessary cookies/storage; analytics remain off.
• Customise — Opens a panel where you can toggle analytics while keeping necessary cookies active.

You can change your mind by clearing site data in your browser or waiting for the six-month expiry, which restores the banner.

5. Third-party cookies

We minimize third-party tags on this Site. If analytics tools are enabled in future, their providers may set their own cookies subject to their privacy policies. We will update this document when subprocessors change.

6. Browser controls

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through settings. Blocking all cookies may affect Site functionality. Consult your browser help documentation for instructions on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge.

7. Relationship to PIPEDA

Where cookie data constitutes personal information under PIPEDA—for example, IP addresses combined with unique identifiers—we collect it only with appropriate consent for analytics, or under legitimate operational needs for necessary cookies. See our Privacy Policy for broader data handling practices.

8. Examples of technologies used

Necessary operation may rely on session cookies set by our hosting stack, security tokens that prevent cross-site request forgery on forms, and local storage entries that remember your cookie preference string. Analytics technologies, when enabled, may include privacy-oriented visit counters that aggregate page views without building individual advertising profiles. We review subprocessors periodically and document material changes on this page.

9. Mobile and embedded browsers

If you view the Site inside an in-app browser or privacy-focused mobile browser, cookie behaviour may differ. Clearing cookies in one browser profile does not clear them in another. Manage preferences separately on each device and browser you use.

10. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” signals. There is no uniform industry standard for responding to these signals. We treat explicit choices made through our cookie banner as authoritative for analytics on this Site.

11. Updates

We may revise this Cookie Policy when we add features or change providers. The “Last updated” date will change accordingly. Continued use after posting constitutes acceptance for Site interactions.
